Project management is the discipline of planning, organizing, and managing resources to bring about the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives.  This is where ProgressConnect comes in. 

A project is a temporary endeavor, having a defined beginning and end, undertaken to meet particular goals and objectives, usually to bring about beneficial change or added value. The temporary nature of projects stands in contrast to business as usual, which are repetitive, permanent or semi-permanent functional work to produce products or services.

The primary challenge of project management is to achieve all of the project goals and objectives while honoring the preconceived project constraints. Typical constraints are scope, time, and budget.  The secondary and more ambitious challenge is to optimize the allocation and integration of resources necessary to meet project goals.
